TravisjustTravis View Profile History	Lets watch the left "open mouth, insert foot" Posted : 21 Jan, 2025 04:42 PM Lets watch the left "open mouth, insert foot" "Open mouth, insert foot" is an idiom that means to say something embarrassing or inappropriate, often without thinking, which can lead to awkward situations. It highlights the idea of making a mistake in conversation that causes discomfort for oneself or others. The main stream news media is a business. Its like the health care industry...sure the drug companies are working tirelessly to develop medication for you to take that will cure you so that you will no longer need the drug company! The medical industry as well as the news media are businesses. -The false media focus on violence: If it bleeds it still leads- https://news.berkeley.edu/blog/the-false-media-focus-on-violence-if-it-bleeds-it-still-leads/ The concept of 'clickbait' does not just exist online...clickbait tactics are also present on the cbs evening news. Tonight on the news we were told about the 'dangerous decision' that president Trump made to pardon January 6th defendants. Then the news conducted an interview with some profesional that claimed that releasing potential criminals into the general public could be dangerous. -Republicans struggle to answer for Trump’s pardon of January 6 defendants just hours into his presidency- https://www.cnn.com/2025/01/21/politics/republicans-reaction-trump-pardons-january-6/index.html Maby I missed the coverage of the potential mayhem that could be caused when Joey O-Biden decided to release (something like) 95% of the inmates that were on federal death row. I try not to be vindictive but I would like to point out that it seems like Joey left the family members of the victums out in the cold. https://www.newsweek.com/joe-biden-commutes-death-row-sentences-37-inmates-full-list-revealed-life-prison-no-parole-2005010 The 'news coverage' seems realy one sided to me!

Well the associated press decided to publish a 'news article' that was written about nothing. -Right-wing extremists are celebrating Elon Musk’s straight-arm gesture during a speech Monday, although his intention wasn’t totally clear and some hate watchdogs are saying not to read too much into it. - https://apnews.com/article/musk-gesture-salute-antisemitism-0070dae53c7a73397b104ae645877535 It seems to me that the writer wanted to say that 'Elon was preforming a natzi salute' but even the writer knew that the statement was ridiculous, so the writer seems to hope that the reader will make the connection Post Reply
